Sometimes you need to do a little bit of investigation of your own to see what the real story is and, with Sky News, that is definitely highly advised. Turns out that the producer has a track record of trying to get 'damages' for this. Here is one incident starring the same Roddy character: http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/disciplines/direct-marketing/opinion/adidass-world-cup-campaign-provides-a-lesson-in-consent/4010659.article http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/disciplines/direct-marketing/... You might not like it but the convention is to have the newsletter sign up box checked. It has been that way for almost two decades now. It is not as if this Roddy character is some blind 83 year old woman terrified by John Lewis newsletters, he specifically created an account on the John Lewis website to specifically get the newsletter specifically so he could take them to court and get damages. It is actually relatively hard to sign up to the John Lewis newsletter, you need to create an account as they don't have a 'subscribe' box on their homepage. Furthermore, creating an account is something you would only do if you were making a purchase or specifically wanting to subscribe to their newsletter. I think that the Roddy character is the scam artist here and I despise his ilk, not only has he sold his soul to work for the evil Murdoch empire he is also a troll.
